You will be ok as you are obviously a genuine tourist ,it is people that are going out and back into Thailand many times only staying out for 1 day then returning, this is what they are clamping down on not genuine tourists

If you have not been doing boarder runs as in out and back in same day , and returned to your home country then there isn't a problem coming in on multiple visa exemptions

you must have a long term visa to get an account, tourist visas are no good for opening bank accounts also dtv's are classed as a tourist visa so no good to get a bank account.

It is only 2 visa exemption stamps as well if you do boarder runs ,out and back the same day. But if you leave for a longer time you should be ok

When you say you will be on a 60 day tourist visa ,do you mean you will be applying for a 60 day visa or getting 60 day visa exemption on arrival, because there is a difference.

Apply for a 90 day non O visa this allows you to get s bank account to pay the 800,000bht then extend it for a year, it then renewed every year this is how most people do it ,no need for medical insurance or police checks.
